Useful info
===========
How to read the screenshots
---------------------------
Squad screen:
- Head:
- Red card = suspension; number on the card = number of matches the
player is suspended for.
- Bandaged head = the player has taken a knock.
- Red cross = injury; number on the cross = number of matches the
player will be out for.
- Black cross = the player is out for the season
- Skills:
- P = Passing
- V = shot Velocity from outside the penalty box
- H = Heading
- T = Tackling
- C = ball Control
- S = Speed
- F = Finishing inside the penalty box
- Current price: it is based on the player's original price (which is
based on his skills, see below) and his form (which, in turn, is
supposedly based on regular playtime in a role that is right for the
player). There is no consensus among fans about the current price
causing better performances or not.
- Trial = without contract (so their price is unknown [it's low in
most but not all cases] and they could leave the team anytime; if you
play them enough, they'll get a contract)

About the game
--------------
You can join the game at any time. Randomly picked vote chooses (picked
when the next choice is set up, something that happens at least 71 hours (i.e., 3 days minus 1 hour) after the choice is posted).
This is a career in Sensible World of Soccer 96/97, a videogame. Prices
are in pound sterlings.
Here are the only (as far as I know) variables in SWOS that matter to you:
- Match: each player acts according to the team's formation [1], to his
value in each skill [2], and to his natural position [3] (and to home advantage?). By default you know each player's 1st 2nd and 3rd best
skills, and his original price, that is correlated to the sum of the
value of all his skills [4].
- Suspensions and injuries (if a player has taken a knock, his form is supposedly OK, but he's more likely to pick up a serious injury; the
knock will heal if he'll get rest)
- Bank:
When Money in Money out
Season begins Competition bonuses
Sponsorship*
Each week Gate receipts* General running costs**
Wages**
Player sales Player purchases
* Proportional to results
** Proportional to players' prices
You can buy and sell players all season long. Other teams always play
with the same XI and don't exchange players with each other.
[1] List of default formations:
4-4-2 = 4-1-3-2
5-4-1 = 5-1-3-1
4-5-1 = 4-1-4-1
5-3-2 = 3-2-3-2
3-5-2 = 3-2-3-2
4-3-3
4-2-4 = 4-2-3-1
3-4-3 = 3-1-3-3
4-4-2s = S-3-1-3-1 (AKA sweep)
5-2-3
3-2-5 = 3-2-3-2 (AKA attack)
6-3-1 = 6-2-1-1 (AKA defend)
All with RB and LB, and (the only exception being "defend") RW and LW
(as forwards if there are just 2 midfielders, otherwise as midfielders).
[2] List of skills: ball control, finishing inside the penalty box,
heading, passing, speed, tackling, shot velocity from outside the
penalty box. A player's value in each of these skills can be 0 to 7. Goalkeepers only have a goalkeeping skill that can be 0 to 48; only goalkeepers have this skill.
[3] List of positions: G, RB, D, LB, RW, M, LW, A.

Staff personalities
-------------------
B. Ben the Basic: only looks at skills
[XI based on: only players priced 30K or more,
- S + T + (C or H or P) = defender
- P + T + (C or S) = defensive midfielder
- P + (any combination of C, S, V) = attacking midfielder
- S + (F or V) + (C or H) = attacker
- S + F + V = attacker
]
D. Dan the Dazzled: only looks at prices
[XI based on original price = playing a player priced 30K or more off
position is better than playing a player priced less than 30K on
position; <30K players are ranked in the following way 1) on trial > 2) formerly on trial but now 5-25K > 3) 25K.]
F. Fred the Frugal: wants to save money
[XI based on original price, but no player on trial]
N. Noah the Netter: thinks that it's all a matter of scoring and not
being scored against
[two attackers, then XI based on original price]
O. Ollie the Opponent: only looks at opponents
[Stop as soon as the criterium is matched:
1. Playing home against a lower-placed team? XI based on original price,
but more than 2 attackers.
Playing away against a higher-placed team? XI based on original price,
but 5 defenders.
2. Playing against 3 midfielders? XI based on original price, but 3-5-2. Playing against 3 defenders? XI based on original price, but 4-3-3.
3. Playing against more than one speedy attacker? XI based on original
price, but sweep.
4. XI based on original price, but 4-4-2.]
P. Pat the Paranoid: is scared of injuries and suspensions
[Stop as soon as the criterium is matched:
1. Playing home against a lower-placed team? Same formation as Dan, then
XI based on original price, but rest any knocked or booked player, and
the three best players.
2. Same formation as Dan, then XI based on original price, but no
knocked or booked players.]
S. Scott the Scout: tries to find new talents
[XI based on original price, but one more unknown-value player]
W. Will the Watcher: only looks at stats
[Same formation as Dan, then XI based on Avg+- (players priced less than
30K only if positive score)]
